I loved the French guy -Nagui. I think his questions were more thought out! The lyrics and what they mean -surface or deeper, is difficult to decipher. He actually asked a lot of questions I've already posted. I think he was reading my stuff! He asked different questions than the other interviews, aside from the question of "who is the perfect girl"!
As for the question at the end of who did the song California Soul:
| Quote: |
California Soul" is a pop-soul tune written by Ashford & Simpson, issued originally as a single by American pop quintet The Fifth Dimension in late 1968. It was also covered by Motown vocal duo Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell the next year and was the duo's last single together when released in early 1970.
Both the Fifth Dimension's version and the Gaye/Terrell version were modest charted hits. The original performed better reaching number twenty-five on the pop singles chart, while Marvin and Tammi's cover reached number fifty-six pop but never charted R&B. The duet was released after Terrell's tragic death from a brain tumor in March 1970.
The song was a socially conscious-type of song advocating love and peace.
In 1969 Bluenote singer Marlena Shaw also did a version of the song which is now featured in a Dockers commercial circa 2008. The Diplo remix appears on the Verve Remixed volume 4 compilation album. |
And Really? They almost did Hendrix' "Crosstown Traffic"? Ah, would love to see that too!
Oh you haters. "Animal" by the Neon Trees is a great song. |

About this Taratata, there was Florent Marchet, an unpretentious artist, with good and smart lyrics (in french), the keyboard reminds me a lot of Supertramp, the bass is not bad either.

He also did an excellent cover feat the leader of a very famous french band (Louise Attaque):

Love all the performances, especially Rock Dust Light Star. It's cool to see them going to TV shows where they're been ages ago.
I also liked this teaser:

Didn't mean to hurt your feelings - it's more of a shame that the quality is not more decent, of course the efforts were highly appreciared. |
